Tang Cheng's smile looked a little weird. After Hans' repeated questioning, Tang Cheng finally spoke. "Believe it or not, there will be people from the military command looking for me, because they can't find this Qisehua group at all!" Tang Cheng dared to say this, he naturally had his own confidence and reasons. Although Zhang Jianghe had just concealed Very good, but Tang Cheng still saw something strange in Zhang Jianghe's expression. Zhang Jiang Kazuya didn't know that Tang Cheng's rejection just now was simply a trick of retreating into advancement.
Sure enough, on the next morning, someone from the military command headquarters came to the Tang family again. This time it was Cao Cheng, a veteran from the military command headquarters. Although this person was not prominent within the military command, he had a close personal relationship with the bureau chief. good. "Uncle Cao, please give me a call, and I will come to my door on my own initiative. It's such a hot day, why bother to come here by yourself!" Tang Cheng treated Cao Cheng very respectfully, because this man was considered a weirdo in the military headquarters. , he, like Tang Cheng, is only interested in catching Japanese and puppet spies.
When the bureau chief took the command of the search team from Tang Cheng, Tang Cheng guessed that the military command would hand over the search team to Cao Cheng, but he did not expect that Cao Cheng, who was originally in the second military command department, would suddenly be transferred. Established the Hong Kong station of military reunification. Cao Cheng was a little uncomfortable with Tang Cheng's respectful attitude at first, but he soon adjusted. "Your father and I are old friends. It's a pity that I have been traveling around all these years. The main reason I came here today is to take a look at the famous Chongqing Town Tiger."
Zhencheng Tiger is a nickname given to Tang Cheng in private by some big brothers in the city. Usually only a few people who are close to Tang Cheng use this nickname to tease Tang Cheng. At this moment, when the nickname "He" came out of Cao Cheng's mouth, Tang Cheng could only smile bitterly, "Uncle Cao, please stop teasing me! It was because some of the cousins in the city did too much, and I couldn't help but come to him. I went to theorize about it, but unexpectedly, they gave me such a nickname in private."
Facing Cao Cheng, Tang Cheng had no pressure to explain, but Cao Cheng was not that easy to fool. "You are really just like Lao Zhang said. Although you are young, you are too mature to do things! When I was your age, I did not look forward and backward when doing things. The nickname Zhencheng Tiger has nothing to do with it. It doesn’t sound good! They gave you such a nickname because they are afraid of you. It’s better to be feared than to be bullied!”
After hearing Cao Cheng's words, Tang Cheng looked confused. No one had ever said such words to him. Cao Cheng laughed, and then bluntly stated his purpose, "I heard that the headquarters wanted to ask you for help in finding the Colorful Flower Group, but you refused? Can you tell me what you really think? ? I know that you have been doing well since you came to Chongqing from Nanjing!" Cao Cheng's last meaningful look made Tang Cheng secretly wary.
Tang Cheng originally thought that both the military commander and the central commander were a bunch of brainless guys, but when he got in touch with the military commander, he suddenly realized that what he had thought before was completely wrong. There was no one who could be a spy. It's a fool. Tang Cheng shook his head gently and said to Cao Chengyan, "It's not that I don't help, it's just that there is very little information about this Qisehua group. I don't even know whether they are male or female. I have no clue at all when searching!"
Even though Tang Cheng respected a pure person like Cao Cheng, he still did not tell the truth to Cao Cheng. The reason why he refused Zhang Jianghe's lobbying was because he was worried that he would become more entangled with the military commander. Once there is a big change in the military system, a small character like himself, who is on the fringe, will inevitably become the best target for those who want to establish their power. This is Tangcheng's consistent principle of dealing with things when they are constantly being punished. Tangcheng will not deal with this kind of matter until it comes to an end.
Cao Cheng didn't know that Tang Cheng didn't tell the truth, but based on his understanding of Tang Cheng, he felt that Tang Cheng's reaction at this moment was a bit strange. However, Cao Cheng did not say it to his face. He just pretended to be confused and said, "That's why I came here this time! The military commander's intelligence station in Shanghai has been collecting information about the Colorful Flower Group during this period! Although there is not much progress, they got a piece of news from a British guy!"
"The British guy once bribed a second lieutenant officer from the Shanghai Military Police Headquarters to act as an inside information. Although the Seven Color Flower Group was regarded as highly confidential by the Special High School, they stayed in Shanghai for a while and even went to the Military Police Headquarters. According to the insider's description, the British guy once targeted one of the Seven Color Flower Group. Unfortunately, the British guy's subordinates were not capable enough and did not notice any changes with the target." Cao Cheng spoke and took out a card from his pocket. The reproduced photo was handed to Tang Cheng.
Tang Cheng reached out and took the photo and glanced down. The photo showed a middle-aged man with a white face and no beard. Tang Cheng frowned slightly because the middle-aged man in the photo was so ordinary that it would be inappropriate to blend into the crowd. The kind of person who stands out. However, according to Tangcheng's experience with enemies, the more ordinary-looking people are, the more suitable they are for the spy profession. In later generations of film and television dramas, the protagonists of spy war dramas who look like peacocks may be stared at by people as soon as they appear on the scene.
"The man in the photo is named Hirakawa Kinichi. When we traced the origins of this man, we could only find out that this man was originally a field agent of the Kwantung Army's Secret Service. He was the same as those Japanese agents and Manchurians who came from the Kwantung Army. Compared with local spies, this person is a China expert. It is said that because he had contacts with many bandits outside the customs in his early years, he has good marksmanship and can speak fluent Shandong dialect!"
When Cao Cheng introduced the situation, Tang Cheng's expression remained calm. It was only when Cao Cheng said the last words that Tang Cheng's expression changed. Cao Cheng, who secretly paid attention to the changes in Tang Cheng's expression, felt relieved at this time, because he knew the key point that Tang Cheng had heard. Tangcheng has been dealing with Japanese and puppet spies for more than a year or two. Although most of the Japanese spies from the north speak with northern accents, they are not familiar with some northern slang.
But if the opponent is a guy who can speak fluent Shandong dialect, there will be big trouble. Many of the defeated troops who went south to Chongqing are from Shandong and Hebei. Although the military commander is in charge of military and police affairs in name, if it really involves the military, the military commander is a bit over the top. Cao Cheng did not think as far as Tangcheng. He emphasized that Pingchuan Jinyi could speak Shandong dialect just to remind Tangcheng. But after he heard Tang Cheng's guess, he couldn't hold himself any longer. He immediately borrowed the phone in Tang Cheng and called the bureau office in front of Tang Cheng.
When Cao Cheng called the bureau chief, he deliberately did not avoid Tang Cheng. This meant that Cao Cheng did not regard Tang Cheng as an outsider, but Tang Cheng himself could not be ignorant. So when Cao Cheng called the bureau's office, Tang Cheng took a tea break as an excuse to make tea. By the time Tang Cheng estimated that it was almost time to come back with tea, Cao Cheng had already put down the phone and was sitting in a chair smoking with a serious expression. "The bureau also attaches great importance to your suspicion just now, but now there are too many broken soldiers in the city. It may be difficult to distinguish them all at once."
Cao Cheng was still straightforward and directly informed Tang Cheng of the bureau's attitude. After hearing this, Tang Cheng did not immediately give an answer, but first poured a cup of hot tea for Cao Chen. "You drink tea first, this is the new tea sent by my friend!" After Cao Cheng picked up the tea cup and took a sip, Tang Cheng finally spoke. "There are too few clues about the Colorful Flower Group. It is impossible to find out quickly! My suggestion is that the investigation can be carried out secretly, but it cannot be interrupted."
"Since the Shanghai Station said that this Qisehua group is coming south to Chongqing, no matter how well the city prepares for it, they will come after all! What the military commander has to do now is to control the situation in the city first, especially It is the smugglers and the Paoge forces on the docks who must make full use of them. If these rivers and lakes forces are used well, they will definitely have unexpected results." Tang Cheng's suggestion at this moment was entirely based on Cao Cheng's face.
Moreover, the suggestion he made was not difficult for the military command headquarters to implement. After listening to the advice given by Tang Cheng, Cao Cheng gave Tang Cheng a thumbs up after just thinking about it for a moment. "No wonder Lao Zhang said that your boy is a talented person! The director also wants to use the Jianghu forces in the city to collect clues. He is just worried that these Jianghu forces will do evil things in the future under the banner of military unification." Cao Cheng said. Although the words were spoken in a calm tone, Tang Cheng could tell that Cao Cheng was asking for new suggestions.
Facing Cao Cheng's probing gaze, Tang Cheng did not shy away, "Although Pao Ge's influence is deeply rooted in Sichuan, the military command represents the will of the country. When Jianghu forces face the will of the country, the only result is to collapse!" Tang Cheng The answer given sounded very vague, but Tang Cheng's attitude was already clear. Tang Cheng has never had close friendship with any political forces. Even with the familiar Paoge bosses in Chongqing, Tang Cheng has always kept a distance from them, so what he said is very justified.
"In the final analysis, the Jianghu forces cannot be put on the table. The higher-ups can tolerate the existence of Jianghu forces because they don't want to see chaos in Chongqing. If the military commander wants to deal with a few Jianghu eldest brothers, it is just like playing. It's easy. As long as you kill the ones who jump the most fiercely, the remaining big brothers who take the lead will probably take the initiative to surrender. Uncle Cao, there are few people in the world who are not clear-headed. Because those stupid heads have no idea at all. How to survive in the world of Jianghu."
